ABSTRACT

A birth certificate, driver&#39;s license and marriage certificate will comprise of options, for the individual to choose how they will identify themselves: M for male, F for female, X for Non-binary or any other legally accepted definition.

FIELD

The present application relates to a transition doll with removable and interchangeable plates for male and female genitalia; male and female chest/abdomen; male and female buttocks; masculine and feminine face plates.

BACKGROUND

Our invention pertains to the field of art generally described as the doll and toy industry concerned with the amusement and education of children and adults of any and all ages.

The Transition Doll will have many applications beyond an individual's amusement. Those applications comprise of therapeutic uses like, becoming a part of pediatric, adolescent or adult behavioral health programs.

Behavioral health practitioners' application of the doll may include use as a communication tool.

Teachers, guidance counselors, school officials, clergy and others who offer counsel, either formally or informally, can use the doll to educate others on becoming more aware of their gender identity questions and to help others understand.

Advocacy groups can use the doll to promote awareness about issues that comprise of gender identity issues, within and outside of their own groups.

Health Education teachers may use the doll to show different anatomy of the male and female genitalia and assist with education of development, from pubescent to adulthood.

Parents could use the doll to proactively communicate with their child, who may be exhibiting gender identity confusion.

With the increasing acceptance and awareness of gender transitions, the doll could become a regular toy for children.

Any doll, whether it's for young boys and girls, adolescents or adults of all ages have increased positive benefits, when the dolls reflect characteristics of the owner. The transition plates and pieces are designed for ease, when attaching and detaching, so all ages can enjoy the doll. The doll's transformation comprises of transitioning into a male or a female, to reflect the owner's gender identity or if they choose not to identify with a binary gender. The doll's application comprises several communities that includes, but not limited to the following: non-binary, transgender, gender non-conforming, gender neutral, gender fluid, gender queer, queer, trans, transvestite, gay, intersex, androgynous, hermaphrodite, cross dresser, drag queen, bi-sexual, pansexual, LGBTQ and any group or individual that identifies with a gender that is different from their birth gender and their supporters. The behavioral health science discipline has recognized the need for providing services to these same communities. As our global society becomes more aware of its citizens who do not identify with their birth gender, countries, provinces, states and cities around the world are passing legislation for LGBTQ+ rights.

Formerly, dolls were constructed without any anatomically correct genitalia and the dolls were binary; either male or female. The pelvic region has always been a smooth surface. Dolls that were traditionally for girls were designed with breasts and an unrealistic body frame. Dolls that were traditionally for males had no anatomical representation. Previous dolls that were configurable, did not include gender transformation.

The connection methods comprise of; magnetic, fastening, tying, buttoning, clasping, banding, adhesive taping, snapping, clicking, sliding, and screwing-on. The various methods of attachments will make the doll user-friendly for all age ranges and increase the life of the transition pieces.
